why i linseed oil not used on oil stones
Linseed oil does not damage paint. Linseed oil is used along with turpentine in oil paints as a type of paint thinner. Linseed oil extends the life of oil paint, makes it easier to thin out, control the paint and paint layers.
Boiled linseed oil is used as a preservative for concrete and wood. It is also used as an ingredient in paints, varnishes, and stains.
We use linseed oil because it soaks into the the bat and makes it moist and knocking in becomes much easier but make sure to use raw linseed oil and not boiled linseed oil. The bat does not soak boiled linseed oil. Raw linseed oil not only increases the life of the bat but also makes the performance of the bat better.
To make linseed oil paint, mix linseed oil with pigment and a solvent like turpentine. Adjust the ratio of oil to pigment for desired consistency and color intensity. Stir well and store in a sealed container.
